Sard fuel pressure regulator

Is anyone running a sard FPR with this adapter plate in the stock location? Does it work well? Or is it better to just run a universal of AN lines?

No. It will not fit in the stock location, and its much bigger then the stock FPR. I flipped the mounting bracket and bolted it into where there was already something to mount to so I wouldnt have to drill any new holes. I also bought a 90 degree fitting so the fuel lines wont kink. I need to get a 90degree fitting for the top feed fuel line, as you can see its kinked.




Sorry about the 2nd pic, my camera is kind of broken

cool thanks for the pics.

I think I'm going to redo all my lines with AN, and mount it in the position you did... nice and hidden.

So do you need an adapter to mount where the stock regulator was to be able to connect AN lines to it?

Yes, you'll need to buy the adapter plate that comes off of the secondary fuel rail. Its kinda pricey, but well worth it. They FPR already has a mounting bracket on it, I had just flipped it so that I could mount it where I did.

I would order from these guys, they provided me with excellent customer service, and I recieved the order in about 3 business days.

ah... that was the thing I linked to at the top. I get it now, the wording was unclear on the ad, I thought it was an adapter plate that lets you mount the FPR in the stock location. I see, it's actually an adapter to an AN fitting.

alright, thanks.

Which SARD regulator did you guys use? I see a regular one and a type-RJ. I translated this but it doesn't say much of a difference, just type R has a larger diaphragm. Looks like the standard one in the photo.
